LibriVox recording of The Last Day of a Condemned, by Victor Hugo. Translated by Sir P. Hesketh-Fleetwood.

Read by Alisson Veldhuis; part of Section 2 read by Nadine Eckert-Boulet.

A man who has been condemned to death writes down his cogitations, feelings and fears while he is waiting for his execution. He does not betray his name to the reader or what he has done. He describes his life in prison, everything from what his cell looks like to the personality of the prison priest. (Introduction by Wikipedia)
